Anthropic is folding Claude Chat and Cowork into one product. Instead of switching between Chat for quick questions and Cowork for bigger tasks, Claude now figures out what a task needs on its own. Users had complained the split felt clunky, and much like the confusion around ChatGPT and ChatGPT Work, it was never obvious which environment to use since both interfaces largely overlapped.

Anthropic is also introducing Claude Docs and Claude Slides, which let users create, edit, and export documents and presentations as PowerPoint or PDF files directly in the chat. The existing Claude Design feature is now part of conversations too. Tasks keep running in the cloud when you close your laptop.

The rollout starts with Pro and Max plans. Team and Free tiers come later. Enterprise admins get at least 30 days' notice. Full details are in the Help Center.
